Hydrangea **Finished **

Post by mauveme »

Started this the other day while waiting for floss. Got it from Just Cross Stitching. (downloaded them all to my laptop, now can stitch anything :dance: when I want)
Of course the colours are what drew me to it.

It's beautiful. I love hydrangeas. We used to have an entire side of the house filled with hydrangea bushes. Blues and pinks. They were so beautiful. I am going to love watching you stitch this. In fact, I think I will pull up the magic bench, get a :coffee: and enjoy your work!

That is a piece of static plastic, (got three in a package from 123 stitch, other two are yellow and green) You rub it on a cloth (blanket ,my hair,clothes) and it creates a static charge to stick to paper -doesn't work that well on paper I found but it works great on the screen because of the natural static of the screen, helps keep my place and the "charge" lasts longer than when i used it on paper charts. I have a similar one that is a little thicker plastic with a magnet strip on the bottom for the magnet boards. What I like about them is that you can see a couple of rows below the line you are stitching
